    Egg Fried Rice

    U & Tea is a Chinese restaurant on E 3rd St. in Bethlehem. They are open every day from 11AM - 9PM. This is not your typical Chinese takeout spot. Every dish is authentically crafted with the freshest ingredients. I haven't encountered another Chinese restaurant that even compares. My last visit I ordered lamb skewers, braised beef noodle soup, spicy peanut chicken, and general Tso's chicken. Everything was wonderful and came out in record time. I didn't like how they brought out everything at once, so next time I'll be sure to order as I go. Pickup and delivery are both available. Lamb Skewers - 7.9 Braised Beef Noodle Soup - 7.6 Spicy Peanut Chicken - 8.2 General Tso's Chicken - 8.3 Food - 8.0 Service - 7.9 Value - 8.1 Restaurant score - 80

    Soup buns

    Menu is very large like 8 pages of food I didn't know what I was looking at truthfully but let's get into what matters FOOD Beef ho fun noodles honestly impressed I let the waitress pick what I should get for the noodles her recommendation did not disappoint!! The noodles were juicy cooked perfectly filled with flavor I want to highlight the noodles were filled with flavor it's not a sauce on top making the noodles good it's the noodles them self cooked to perfection beef same thing this isn't a saucy dish this is a dish filled with flavor. Well done I can't expect much more from this 5star dish. Visually I've never seen noodles in this shape before I was thinking the small strings were noodles and they barely gave me any but that's not the case the noodles are different from what I'm used to seeing and plentiful. Brown sugar Tea latte. Ok I mean when you drink boba you're never ready for thoes bobas to hit it taste like a tea that's also a latte that's all that really is Soup buns. Juicy good flavor can't complain about it nothing crazy mind blowing but simple and tasteful so it's perfect Pork pot stickers. When I ordered these I was thinking get something that I know I can fall back on honestly expecting them to be super basic pork pot stickers they actually weirdly enough had a fresh taste to them.... Fresh has a taste! Nothing hard about them the side they cooked them on has that carmelized crispness to it the ingredients weren't just meshed around in it they were put in it there's a major difference. Well done again so far nothing has missed in flavor. CRISPY GARLIC RIBS!! Wow! Is all I need to say about this it's just how do you get so much juice and flavor and still have that crunch! Sweet explosion of flavor hidden behind the crumbs when I look for a food that has an explosion of flavor this is exactly what I'm talking about. Perfectly cooked I ate it to the bone until I was stuffed SERVICE Incredible waitress right when I got there she was ready to take my order whatever I needed the noodles came out after I ordered within 4 minutes after that the other food came out in a decent amount of time AMBIENCE other then this little girl behind me slamming her silverware on her plate and her parents not saying anything about it... it's a cute place pretty hidden no music or anything going on so you can hear everything that's going on with everyone I think that's really the only thing that's missing right now there's just not much going on in here a total of 4 pieces of art on the wall. That's it CONCLUSION I have to give this a 5 star rating the food I ate was not slathered in sauce to make the food taste good the food itself had taste waitress was sweet and helped big time every food I ate here went well with the style of this restaurant they weren't at all trying to follow some kind of crowd with food that they know people will like if they have the food you like they make it the way they belive it should be made I'd take a girl on a date here just please have some kind of music. I'll be back!

    Service and food are on point. I had the broccoli and beef with rice and it was delicious. Much better than Panda Express, the beef was tender and the Broccoli still had a slight crunch to it. The restaurant has plenty of space and wait staff are super attentive and caring.

    Food, as always, so very delicious. Service is usually excellent but the hostess was rude several times and made me feel so uncomfortable I may not return. I came in behind a couple & waited to be seated. While waiting to be seated I saw a sign warning that cars parked in parking lot across street would be towed so I went to move my car. When I came back, I stood a few minutes waiting for hostess to acknowledge me & she didn't. I greeted her since she didn't look up. She was making a drink and told me to wait. I did. The place was pretty empty and there were several small tables by the door so after waiting a few more minutes I asked if I could sit at one of them. She looked annoyed and tossed the menu my way. She was clearly upset with me wanting to sit down, never welcomed me or said a single word of greeting like "your waitress will be over shortly" ... just grumpy! The waitress who took my order and served was far more gracious & kind. This is my usual experience here. There was 7-8 other customers (at 3 other tables) in the dining area that can sit 40-50 & 3 waitresses. Food delivery was prompt but no one came back to give me a bill or box for my food in the 20 minutes I sat there. I tried getting someone's attention several times and finally called out "excuse me" to the hostess watching a tablet screen at the front desk. She looked annoyed when I asked for a check. "You can pay here" she blurted out at me pointing at the front desk, then put her face back into the screen. I didn't have a check to pay, so I was confused. I also needed a box for my food & told her so, at this point having to speak loudly across the restaurant because she wouldn't get up to come speak to me or get my waitress for me. She didn't hear me (or pretended not to understand my request 2x). Then She told me "She will bring you a box!" In an irritated tone, and turned away again! I explained I'd been waiting a few minutes and needed someone to get my waitress so I could ask for a box & a bill. In a huff, she stood up and marched into the kitchen to get me a box. I thanked her loudly for her "kind assistance"! She was so prickly when she dropped off the boxes (still no check) that I didn't even make eye contact with her or thank her. A moment later my waitress wandered by and I asked for a bill. She went to the front cash register and printed one out. The hostess could have done that I assume, but did not? Why? I gave my card and the waitress rang me out politely, brought me a bag, and kindly wished me a nice day. The hostess made no eye contact and went back to her screen. I hope she doesn't get any portion of the service tip I left for my excellent waitress. What a disappointment U & Tea. I've always loved you before today!

    (Top to bottom) general tso, chicken hu, teriyaki chicken and seafood noodle soup.

    Nice cozy place in Bethlehem. Menu is different (in a good way) from your traditional Chinese place. We started off with soup buns and shrimp pot stickers. Both came out quickly, hot and very good. Our 4 entrees were General Tso chicken, seafood noodle soup, teriyaki chicken and chicken hu. All came with white rice. Excellent flavors and large portions. They have something for everyone there, specially drinks and tea also. We will definitely go back. Overall nice change from the normal Chinese takeout menu.

    Awesome spot, quick service & delicious food! Highly recommend to all, service was on point & very kind staff.

    Came here with family during early weekday afternoon and was immediately greeted and seated. The menu was expansive and we ordered a quite a few dishes: (will update with names later). The food? ALL of them were flavorful. Eggplant was tender but not mushy, chicken was delicious, fried rice was well seasoned, milk tea was good, and the fried buns were made fresh to order. We devoured a bunch but still had enough for leftovers. The amount of food for the price was worth it and the service was great, they kept checking in on us (though we were one of 3 groups there). I'd check this spot out if you're in the south side or visiting the colleges around. Plenty of parking in the public lots too (though it is metered at $2.50/hour).

    Shrimp dumpling, hot pepper pork.. Both were amazing!!

    The place is unassuming and clean. Not fancy but clean. The outside is very bland, you have to go in. I had the shrimp dumplings which were absolutely delicious, with the dipping sauce. So good! Then I got the hot pepper pork and asked if for it hot. It was and I'll go back. Service was spot on and friendly too.

    Good food quantity, one plate is good for a single person. However, some plates tastes strange rather than authentic Chinese.

I found the food at New China to be mediocre to poor. When I brought my take-out food home I found that the Chow Mein had no noodles. It just had lots of sprouts and other veggies. The veggies were okay, but I ordered a noodle dish and it came with no noodles. Yikes! My son ordered Orange Chicken and it was a bit mushy and the taste was unremarkable. There was "no crunch and no tang", my son said. The only redeeming thing I found it that the food is cooked to order and is ready in 5-10 minutes while you wait. However, there is no place to sit down so you have to take the food home or to your office to eat it. But then it gets cold by then which makes the flavor even more mediocre. Only go here if you are in a rush and don't have expectations in regards to taste.

    OMG! Finally found an All-You-Can-Eat sushi restaurant in NEPA that rivals my former AYCE Fukudaya…read moreand Minado's restaurants from Long Island, NY. Unfortunately, because of lease issues both closed. Been dying for sushi restaurant since 2019 when I moved here. (Supermarket sushi/sashimi is just a tease, expensive (considering the number of pieces I eat) compared to AYCE and nothing else.) Imagine how excited I was upon my discovery. Hoshi, a Sushi chef, really treats me well, even had me try special-house HOT (some is really HOT) wasabi. Even though I go monthly, he always recalls my name. The service staff is pretty good, as I seat at the sushi bar my contact with them is limited. The ambiance is OK, not too Asian. I think the restaurant would feel more Asian if they upgraded it, but, I'm not there for the ambiance... ... Just the AYCE sushi! The sushi has always been fresh, and tasteful with or without the wasabi but the ginger between fishes should always be consumed to clean the palate and appreciate the texture of the next fish. The miso soup is as I remember it from NY, as is the eel, yellowtail, and others. I have never tried much other plates, I simply get my over-fullness from the different sushi and sashimi. At Minado's I used to say "Someday, I'll try their hot foods" never did and don't feel bad about it. I have to assume that Kung Fu II's hot food is as tasteful as their sushi and sashimi. Hoshi has never disappointed me in the service or the amount of time to prepare my sushi / sashimi; I hope he will be there any time I go, alone or with relatives or friends.

My girlfriend ordered the sweet and sour chicken, along with 2 eggrolls, which she loved. I had sushi (Salmon Sample and Sushi and Sashimi Combo B) that was really wonderful. Even though the pieces of fish were smaller than I'm accustomed to, the quality was high. I'm also used to having cooked meals and sushi meals delivered at separate times, but both plates got to our tables at around the same time. Besides serving Chinese and Japanese food, there are some Thai dishes as well. On our next trip, I will give their rolls a try -- and I'll make certain to get that stellar Salmon Sample once again.
